Split plutus-tx-plugin-tests

This test suite is very big and takes a long time to run.

The new test suites assocmap-plugin-tests and list-plugin-tests contain golden tests, but nix/project.nix only sets --no-create for the original suite:

plutus-tx-plugin.components.tests.plutus-tx-plugin-tests.testFlags = [ "--no-create" ];
plutus-tx-plugin.components.tests.size.testFlags = [ "--no-create" ];

Should we add the same for the two new suites?

plutus-tx-plugin.components.tests.assocmap-plugin-tests.testFlags = [ "--no-create" ];
plutus-tx-plugin.components.tests.list-plugin-tests.testFlags = [ "--no-create" ];

Without this, if a golden file is accidentally missing, CI would silently create it instead of failing.

As a minor note: most of these test groups (List property tests, Map property tests, BuiltinList/Budget, DataList/Budget, Array, etc.) can already be run in isolation via --test-options='-p "group name"' without splitting into separate suites. The exception is AssocMap golden tests — their Tasty group is named Budget (via testNested "Budget" in AssocMap/Spec.hs), which collides with the main Budget group. If the test groups were given unique names (e.g. AssocMap/Budget), all of them could be filtered with -p. That said, separate suites do give the added benefit of Hydra-level parallelism and independent failure reporting.

Good catch. I've addressed this.
